This study explored gene expression in Changthangi goats and found that higher expression of keratin-related genes and specific signaling pathways may play a role in the development of Pashmina fiber.

This study provided the first proteome dataset for alopecia areata, revealing novel pathways in the disease mechanisms that may lead to new therapeutic targets.

This study found that inhibiting AP1 transcription factor activity in the suprabasal epidermis of mice alters keratinocyte gene expression, reducing barrier integrity and mimicking human keratoderma.

This paper reviews the genetic aspects of hair disorders and suggests that understanding these genes could advance treatment and diagnosis; it reports no new experimental findings.

This review highlights recent genetic research advancements in understanding hereditary hair diseases but reports no new study results, emphasizing the identification of genes related to both monogenic and polygenic hair disorders.

This study suggests that hydroxypinacolone retinoate (HPR) may be an effective alternative to tretinoin for anti-aging skin treatments, offering similar collagen production benefits without increased skin irritation.

This study compiled an archive of 684 genes associated with monogenic hair disorders, identifying previously unrecognized components of Hippo signaling and proposing a new biologically-grounded disease taxonomy.

The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.

This study found that finasteride treatment in male rats may lead to changes in connexin 43 expression in the testes of their offspring, potentially affecting spermatogenesis.

This review discusses the formation and structure of the cornified cell envelope in the epidermis, highlighting biochemical pathways and genetic factors, but presents no new experimental results.

In this study, researchers used an evolutionary-rate-based method to identify genetic elements associated with reduced hair in mammals, finding a dichotomy between accelerated coding sequences and noncoding regulatory elements influencing hair growth.

This study found that FZD2 is crucial for hair follicle formation and postnatal growth in mice and has a novel role in regulating early epidermal development, including stratification and cornification.
